Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn made all his kicks in Week 7, knocking through two field goals and two extra points. His team's offense struggled to get much going on the road in Seattle, but he continues to make the most of his chances when he gets them. On the season, the 31-year-old is 13-for-15 on field goal attempts and 10-for-10 on extra points. He has made five field goals of 50+ yards, and both his misses came from that long range as well. Fairbairn and the Texans are at home against the 49ers this week, but the 49ers have allowed the fourth-fewest points this season to kickers. Despite the tough matchup, Fairbairn is the No. 13 kicker in RotoBaller's rankings, making him a startable option in standard leagues even though he isn't an elite play this week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin (illness) was added to the injury report late in the week, but he carries no game designation and is fully expected to play against the Seattle Seahawks. McLaughlin has been productive through four weeks, hitting nine of 12 field goal attempts, including a 65-yarder against Philadelphia in Week 4. While his 75% field goal percentage ranks just 26th in the league, the Buccaneers' explosive offense has kept him busy, and he currently sits fifth among kickers in fantasy points. With Tampa Bay traveling to Seattle for what projects to be a close matchup, McLaughlin should once again see multiple scoring opportunities. Fantasy managers should treat him as a must-start option in Week 5.
